Emanuel Zacchini, the famous human cannonball of the Ringlings Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus, was fired out of a cannon with a speed of 24.0 m/s at an angle of 40.0 degrees to the horizontal. If he landed in a new 56.6 m away at the same height from which he was fired, how long was Zacchini in the air?

In 2007, Michael Carter (U.S.) set a world record in the shot put with a throw of 24.77 m. What was the initial speed, in m/s, of the shot if he released it at a height of 2.10 m and threw it at an angle of 38.0° above the horizontal? (Although the maximum distance for a projectile on level ground is achieved at 45° when air resistance is neglected, the actual angle to achieve maximum range is smaller; thus 38° will give a longer range than 45° in the shot put.) v0 =
